Re: Forum Users Fuel Consumption Monitor


Just added my exy to the vehicles and the only two tank fulls I have put in (only had it a couple of weeks).

Only city driving so far but the consumption is a bit higher than I got from the Nissan specs - no real surprise there.

10.2 so far .... unfortunately quite a bit more than the Mazda 3 (was 8.5 for city). Then again, i couldn't take the 3 to the places I plan to take this!

Will be interesting to see how it goes over time.

Gee, I love this site!

Re: Forum Users Fuel Consumption Monitor


I am using the fuel monitor every week and it is quite interesting to see the difference my driving style makes to the final result, not to mention the $$$$ value showing how I am being ripped-off at the pump every week LOL emoticon

Just don't fill up the petrol tank Jalal and save that weight for the gas emoticon

Actually ... with petrol just hitting $1.60 today, I'm seriously thinking of the gas conversion myself when the lease runs out. That way I'll get the rebate as the car will be privately owned emoticon

Hi Guys,

I noticed that not many members are using the fuel consumption monitor database and it would have been very interesting to see and compare the different xtrails, especially the T30 and T31 (petrol and diesel) versions and have them side by side in the database.

I'm using it every week and find it an excellent record keeping exercise which also gives me an idea how much money am spending on fuel each week/month/year.

If you need any help to get you started and registered in this database, let me know.

Added the manual diesel to the site. Lowest with an average of 7.98. First tank with a full mix of driving including "New Toy" Driving. emoticon

I also run roof racks with bike racks on them (about 50km was done with 2 bikes on roof at 100+). Wonder how much they are affecting fuel consumption because they made a reasonable difference on the corolla I had previously.

Re: Forum Users Fuel Consumption Monitor


Just added my car to the site.... calculated reading if 9.96. Trip computer is saying 10.0.
This looks like a great tool for the monitoring of fuel consumption and comparisons between cars.
Cheers,
Andy
